banana bread

Another one of my mother's recipes. This banana bread leaves an imprint in your memory. A teacher from 10 years ago still begs me to send her from halfway across the country. It's easy to modify... I tend to bake them into muffins or smaller loaves, which cuts the baking time. Rule with these is a knife should come out clean. I also add chocolate chips form time to time and most recently, 3/4 cup of peanut butter. If you're trying to avoid butter, olive oil substitutes well at about 1/4 cup.

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside. In a blender, combine wet ingredients, blend on puree until mixture is well blended.Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Pour mixture into a well greased loaf pan. Bake for 40-45 minutestime is approximate and may vary with size of pan or type of oven. Check with toothpick or knife in center of loafif it comes out clean, bread is done.
